What type of interface is inside the BMW 1 Series armrest box?
1 Answers
The BMW 1 Series armrest box contains a Type-C interface. Type-C is a USB connection interface that can be inserted either way, with dimensions of approximately 8.3mm/2.5mm. Like other interfaces, it supports USB-standard functions such as charging, data transfer, and display output. Main features of Type-C: Fast transmission: Theoretically, the maximum transmission rate of a USB-C port is 10Gb per second. However, Apple states that the USB-C port on the new MacBook has a maximum transmission rate of 5Gbps. The maximum output voltage is 20 volts, which can speed up charging time. In contrast, the USB-A type has a maximum transmission rate of 5Gbps and an output voltage of 5 volts. Multi-port output: The USB-C port on the new MacBook can transfer data, charge devices, and also serve as a video output port to connect to external display devices. Bidirectional transmission: Unlike older USB ports, which only allow unidirectional power transmission, the USB-C port supports bidirectional power transmission. This means it can send power in two ways. Therefore, users can not only charge mobile devices with their laptop but also charge the laptop using other devices or power banks.
